If I were writing a conventional review, my 16-inch MacBook Pro review would be a little late to the party. But my Diary pieces are all about how my impressions build over time with real-life use, so it’s less important in this case that I took delivery of mine exactly a month after it first went on sale.
I hadn’t initially planned to buy it because, on paper, it simply didn’t seem to be enough of an upgrade:
- Very similar physical size
- Slightly larger, slightly higher-res screen with thinner bezels & custom refresh rates
- A completely redesigned scissor keyboard
- New CPU, GPU, RAM and storage options
- Better speakers and microphones
- An extra hour of claimed battery life
Playing with it for about half an hour in an Apple Store hadn’t really changed my mind: this was still something of a distress purchase for me…
